In this paper, the effect of initial stress on the propagation of Love waves in a layered structure with a thin piezoelectric film bonded perfectly to an elastic substrate has been investigated. General dispersion equations, describing the properties of Love waves in both cases, electrically open case and electrically shorted case of the piezoelectric layer, have been obtained. The effects of inhomogeneity parameters in the substrate and the initial stress in both, the layer and the substrate on the phase velocity of Love waves, are analyzed and presented graphically. The analytical method and obtained results may find applications for designing the resonators and sensors.
